Which process change a chlorine atom into a chloride ion?
chlorine atom will first convert to the gaseous chlorine atom which will then add one electron to form chloride ion.
What is bigger a chlorine atom or a chlorine ion?
A chloride ion is slightly larger than a chlorine atom, because in an ion there is one more electron than proton, allowing the electron shells to expand slightly. In a chlorine atom, the number of electrons and protons is the same.
Is chlorine a atom or ion and how do you know?
Chlorine is an atom with a neutral charge, 0. Chloride is the chlorine ion with a charge of -1. You can tell the two apart because the chlorine atom is simply "Cl" whereas the chloride ion is denoted "Cl" with a superscript minus sign.
How many valence electrons are in a chlorine atom and a chloride ion?
There are 7 valence electrons in chlorine atom and 8 valence electrons in chloride ion.
What does a chloride ion have that a chlorine atom does not?
The chloride ion has an electron in plus.

Is a chlorine atom or chlorine ion bigger?
A sulfur atom is larger than an oxygen atom.
When an atom of chlorine forms an ionic bond with an atom of sodium does the atom of chlorine become an ion with a smaller or larger radius than the atom of chlorine?
It becomes an ion with a larger radius than the atom of chlorine
How are sodium and chlorine ions different from salt molecules?
A sodium ion is a sodium atom missing one electron. A chlorine ion is a chlorine atom with an extra electron. A salt molecule is a sodium ion stuck to a chlorine ion.
What is the chloride ion and chlorine atom electron configuration?
Cl- Chloride ion 1s22s22p63s23p6 Cl Chlorine atom 1s22s22p63s23p5

There are 7 valence electrons in chlorine atom and 8 valence electrons in chloride ion.
What is the difference between chlorine ion and atom?
A chlorine ion has one less electron, giving it a +1 charge.
What is the definition of chlorine ion?
A chloride ion is a chlorine atom that has gained one electron, and as such has developed a charge of -1.
Chloride ion and the chlorine atom have how many electron configurations?
chlorine have 17 atom the eletron configuration 1s22s22p63s23p5
